LAROS, Jacob A; MARCIANO, João Luiz Pereira  e  ANDRADE, Josemberg Moura de. FACTORS THAT AFFECT THE PERFORMANCE ON THE SAEB MATHEMATICS TEST: A MULTILEVEL STUDY. Aval. psicol. [online]. 2010, vol.9, n.2, pp. 173-186. ISSN 1677-0471.

The main purpose of this study was to identify variables that affect proficiency in Mathematics of Brazilian students of the third grade of secondary school. To attain this goal we analyzed the data of 35,929 students of 1,715 schools who took the Mathematics test of the SAEB in 2001. Multilevel analysis showed a raw intraclass correlation (ICC) of .43 and an ICC corrected for variables related to the composition and selectivity of the school of .15. After the entry of the control variables seven indicators on student level and five indicators on school level were identified that affect achievement in Mathematics. The final model of this study explains at least 84.9% of the total variance on school level and 19.8% of the total variance on student level. The results of the present study confirm the results of other Brazilian studies related to factors affecting proficiency in Mathematics using multilevel analysis.
